Lilin brought a glass of water over to Emily to distract her. "Miss Emily, do you want to drink swater?" Emily shook her head. "No, thanks. Lilin, | have something | need you to do for me." Lilin put the glass of water down and looked at her sincerely. "I'll do anything for you." "I didn't want to trouble your dad with this request since your mom is arguing with him, but since I'm stuck in the hospital for the moment, | have no choice but to ask him for help. Can you please ask him to get his bodyguard to bring Marvin here to see me?" Lilin nodded. "Sure thing, Miss Emily! That's easily done. It just so happens | have a score to settle with his wife and daughter, so he might as well calong!" Emily wanted to persuade Lilin not to take revenge for her sake but decided to keep quiet. After all, Liliana and Sherlyn used to torment Corinne. To Emily, the two women deserved whatever was coming for them.

He quickly hugged her and said," You almost scaredto death! Thank god you're fine!" Melinda was taken aback, and her anger rapidly disappeared. "What... What are you doing? Behave yourself! People are going to laugh at us!" [x] Adam did not care. "There's no one here. Chwith me, Mel. I'm really worried about you and Lilin staying outside." Melinda frowned. "First of all, letgo.” Adam immediately released her. “So you're coming hwith me?" Melinda felt a wave of emotions and was very close to agreeing.
